Job descriptionSenior Software Engineer | Remote | AI SaaS Software Role Remote | UTC-6 to UTC+2
The Opportunity We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help architect and evolve Process Street into an AI-native product and engineering organization.
This is not a traditional “just ship tickets” role. We’re looking for someone who is deeply comfortable working in multi-session coding environments, leveraging tools like Claude Code, Codex, and other agentic workflows to design, build, and iterate faster than conventional development allows.
You’ll operate at the intersection of:
Internal tooling, agents, and developer workflows
You’ll help us rethink how software is built – from how code is written, to how systems evolve, to how teams collaborate with AI.
What You’ll Do
Architect and evolve backend systems (Scala / Play / Postgres / AWS)
Design and deploy scalable APIs and AI‑assisted services
Own feature development from ideation to production
Build frontend features using React, Chakra, Storybook, and modern state tools
Use tools like Claude Code / Codex to accelerate implementation, debugging, and refactoring across multiple sessions in parallel
Create internal tooling, prompts, and “engineering systems” that improve velocity and code quality
Optimize performance across frontend, backend, and AI‑assisted pipelines
Eventually lead a small team (2–3 engineers) and shape how they work with AI
What You’ll Bring
7+ years of software engineering experience
Strong experience with backend systems (Scala, or Java / Ruby / C#)
Experience building and scaling SaaS products
Deep familiarity with AI coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, etc.)
Strong intuition for when to rely on AI vs. manual implementation
Experience designing systems, not just implementing features
About You
You live in a timezone between UTC -6 to UTC+2 (North American Central Time through Central European Summer Time)
You think of coding as a collaboration with AI, not a solo activity
You’re a Claude Code / Codex power user – you understand configuration deeply, know how to structure contexts, and can reliably steer long-running coding sessions
You’ve experimented with or built: Internal tools, prompts, and “skills” for engineering
Agent-like systems that operate across files, repos, or tasks
Writing code
Designing systems
Debugging AI-generated output
You care about leverage – getting more done with smarter workflows, not just more effort.
You want agency – PMs provide a problem statement and some guidelines – no tickets, no detailed specs, no high-fidelity solutions, and no estimates. Designers and engineers are trusted to craft the best solution possible in the cycle using user research, data, experience, and grit. During the 2‑week cooldowns, you have the autonomy to work on what’s important to you – including code maintainability or making the team faster. If a lot of responsibility, freedom, and ambiguity sounds refreshing, this role is for you.
You love the process but loathe meetings, bureaucracy, and ceremony. We think process is a tool. Used well, it makes us a better, faster team. But when it’s not doing that, we drop it. We avoid unnecessary meetings whenever possible. A typical week for our engineers and designers has fewer than 5 hours of meetings.
You want to have a big impact. We’re a small team, and we’re still at an early stage. We don’t have designated areas of responsibility, and everyone wears the product hat. Every cycle brings new challenges, and your sphere of influence is wide. You love the variety and don’t want to be shackled to a single project for years.
How We Work
We follow the Shape Up process: 6‑week cycles: solve problems, not tickets
2‑week cooldowns: improve systems, tooling, or explore ideas
This role is a strong fit if you: Thrive in ambiguity and autonomy
Prefer ownership over instructions
Care about shipping real outcomes
Want to rethink how product and engineering are done in an AI‑first world
Infra: AWS, Docker, CircleCI
AI Workflow: Claude Code, Codex, agent-based tooling (evolving rapidly)
What Makes This Role Different This is not just a “use AI to go faster” role.
How engineers collaborate with AI
How codebases are structured for agent interaction
How workflows evolve when AI is a first‑class participant
Bonus Points
Experience with functional programming
Experience building internal dev tools or platforms
Experience designing prompt systems or reusable AI workflows
Opinions about how coding will change in the next 3–5 years (and the ability to act on them)
Unlimited PTO policy – Most take 3-4 weeks, plus their major holidays, and a company‑wide week off in December.
Company offsite – We get together as a whole company to celebrate company milestones as well as encourage and sponsor small group meetups so that you can meet your teammates face‑to‑face around the world.
Social time – We know human connections are what make teams strong. We regularly do coffee chats, game‑playing, story‑telling, house tours (only if you’re comfortable), and more to build connections.
Generous health insurance – for US employees and their families, including dental and vision plans.
Equity for all full‑time roles.
We are proud to be an equal‑opportunity employer. We are committed to equal opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, gender, gender identity, genetic information, parental or pregnancy status, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, or Veteran status.
